Two weeks ago, I was in your shoes. I quickly caved and began anolyzing the details given out and pouring over http://www.imperial-library.info/ to get better acquainted with all of the lore. On a related note, I found out that making your head hurt and feeling like you need to take a college course on metaphysics is a sure-fire way to calm you down :blink:
I feel like I'll need from now until November to understand Michael Kirkbride's texts. The wait for Skyrim won't be nearly as hard as I thought :happy:
I wish this would have worked for me...
... as soon as my head started hurting, I decided that I -should- take a college level course on metaphysics. Now I know 22 different ways to kill a man with my brain... see the world in varying degrees of energy... and still, I haven't gotten any closer to having Skyrim in my hands.
I do understand the flows of Magicka in a make-believe world, however... so WIN! :celebration:
